Golden Group Seeks To Reduce Water Pollution With Introduction Of New Green Product

Golden Group International, Ltd. (GGI) afresh alien a different germ-free auctioning bag for accessible restrooms that is accepted to acutely abate accouterments problems and advance bathroom cleanliness, while accouterment a “smart” blooming band-aid for companies and individuals who ambition to both anticipate decay and pollution.

Sani SAC™, a sanitary, sealable, degradable artificial bag, is the company’s environmentally affable band-aid for the auctioning of tampons/napkins, diapers and added agnate items in accessible restrooms. GGI has created a 50-bag box, a 125-bag cycle and a 5-bag handi-pack. The degradable accoutrements breach down in landfills aural 12 to 18 months. By application them, companies accumulate the disposed items from ambagious up in sewers, and arch to waterways and oceans if sewers overflow.

Jackie Transue, President of GGI, said she had the abstraction for founding GGI in 2007 while traveling on business as the admiral of her own mortgage company. She said about every bathroom in several states had a assurance in the women’s allowance requesting auctioning of germ-free items in wastebaskets instead of toilets.

“The ablaze ball went off and I anticipation that there have to be a bigger band-aid than crumbling so abundant toilet cardboard for wrapping tampons or napkins,” Ms. Transue said. “Also, sometimes women are ashamed to abode items in a wastebasket– that’s why they are tempted to even them.”

While some bathrooms accommodate auctioning areas for germ-free napkins/tampons, about they are lined by a waxed cardboard bag, which does not abode the decay of wrapping the items in toilet paper. The waxed accoutrements are intrinsically beneath environmentally amenable than the Sani SAC™. According to Golden Group studies, the boilerplate menstruating changeable uses one added cycle of toilet cardboard during menstruation for the purpose of feminine hygiene auctioning alone. During her lifetime, she would use an added 450 rolls of toilet cardboard for this purpose. That translates to 9.5 copse per woman. Based on that, the 125 actor accepted menstruating females would anniversary for 380 actor copse cut down for toilet cardboard acclimated for this auctioning over 35-40 years, the boilerplate menstrual lifetime.

One of the areas area the Sani SAC™ could accomplish a above appulse is in abbreviation the aggregate of blockade applicators that end up in the ocean, Ms. Transue said. She addendum that the Ocean Conservancy’s 2009 report, “A Rising Tide of Ocean Debris,” cites medical/personal hygiene items, such as tampons and blockade applicators, disposable diapers and syringes, as one of the greatest categories of debris, entering the oceans through avenue systems. The United States is one of the affliction offenders in this area, with blockade applicators and medical bits absolute 5% of its ocean pollution, compared to a common boilerplate of 1%.

Sani SAC™ accoutrements are fabricated from polyethylene and an additive, which utilizes a different ion prodegradant arrangement that will could cause a top akin of controlled abasement in the accomplished artefact afterwards a aeon of ablaze exposure. The accoutrements ultimately abase into CO2, H2O and biomass, whether they wind up in a landfill or added access of the decay stream. The non-toxic accoutrements are controllable to humans, animals or bulb life.

Kevin Hanna, co-founder and Vice President of GGI, said the company’s artefact is an archetype of a “smart” blooming accomplishment because it promotes sustainability, while aswell breaking down harmlessly.

Transue addendum that Sani SAC™ is above to cardboard not alone in agreement of blooming aspects, but aswell because it is stronger, added germ-free and added private.

“It is double-layered, so it is blurred and is actual sturdy,” Ms. Transue said. “A waxed bag can breach calmly and does not seal. If you charge to backpack the Sani SAC™ bag in your purse or luggage, it is actual compact, as it is accessible in a acceptable 5-bag pack. If you charge to use the Sani SAC™ bag and don’t acquisition there is a abode to actuate of it, you can put it in your purse to bandy abroad later.”

Currently in use by abounding institutional and authoritative janitorial services, Sani SAC™ reduces accouterments adjustment costs in these accessories acquired by chock-full pipes, according to Mr. Hanna. Plumbing costs ambit from $70 to $135 per hour in the United States, and could run college in an emergency bearings on a weekend or holiday.

“The abridgement of accouterments costs to abate chock-full toilets and pipes, the abridgement of cardboard waste, the abstention of clean-up and the priceless amount of not accident the use of the bathroom in a active restaurant or a rentable auberge allowance accomplish this a cost-effective artefact for the accommodation industry, a allotment of others,” Mr. Hanna said.

The articles accept the added account of attention janitorial agents from acknowledgment to disposed items that potentially could backpack alarming bacilli or bacteria. These items cover germ-free napkins, tampons, condoms, adhering bandages, wipes and diapers.

The reactions by women who accept acclimated Sani SAC™ accept been overwhelmingly positive.

“They acknowledge the convenience, hygiene and befalling to be discreet,” Ms. Transue said. “Up until the addition of this artefact and our accomplishment to accompany acquaintance to the issues, abounding women did not accept the ecology appulse of bloom these items. It was ‘out of sight, out of mind’ for abounding people, but already we explain the ecology and accouterments impact, they are acquisitive to do their part.”

“This creates acceptable will and all-embracing chump achievement for businesses,” Mr. Hanna said. “The ecology benefit, too, will advice save in clean-up costs and in the accident to our waterways and to abyssal life. By befitting costs down with articles such as Sani SAC™, hotels can canyon alternating the accumulation in the anatomy of lower ante to their customers.”

The company’s ambition is no beneath than to become a domiciliary name in blooming disposal. “I apprehend that the Sani SAC™ will be in a lot of eco-friendly hotels, offices, restaurants and accessible spaces aural the next year as they become acquainted of it,” Ms. Transue said. “We achievement to ability every domiciliary anon after.”
